Ancient and modern sages and discouragement
Dead trees will reappear in spring, and people will no longer be young. If you don't get old, you will accomplish nothing. I'm afraid children can't learn. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves before, and today's people in the world are better than the ancients. If you waste your time, you will leave regrets in the old space. Ambition is not high, but ambition is a hundred years old. A lazy youth, a lousy age. Study hard and make progress every day. Perseverance is tempered by time. 360 lines, each line is a champion. Ice is born in water, colder than water, and shines on you more than blue. When the book is used, I hate it less. It's not difficult. Let's talk about it later.
2. Translation
The withered tree will sprout again next spring, but only one young time in life is wasted, and it can never be made up. Don't worry about no achievements when you are old, but you are most afraid of no progress when you are young. With the development of society, people will shine better than you, and the people behind will always surpass the people in front. You can't waste your time. You must hurry up and study hard so that you won't regret it when you get rich. With ambition and ideal, success does not depend on age; Without ambition and ideals, life is useless. It is useless to study if you don't work hard when you are young and strong. Listen, watch, read, write and practice repeatedly, and pay attention to improving your spiritual realm, moral level and business skills every day. Perseverance, after long-term exercise, everyone can become a useful talent. No matter what you do, as long as you love your job, you can get excellent grades. Through hard work, students surpass teachers in knowledge and study. Knowledge always makes people feel too inadequate to use. I don't know how difficult it is to do many things without personal experience.
